Abstract: System and method for imaging a target, the method comprising transmitting a plurality of N pulses of electromagnetic waves to illuminate the target, receiving a pulse of electromagnetic waves that is reflected by the target from each of the transmitted pulses at an imager sensitive to the electromagnetic waves, integrating energy in the plurality of received pulses during a same exposure period of the imager to provide a measure of the integrated energy, and processing the measure of integrated energy to provide N images of the target.

Abstract: An autonomous system for automatic picking and boxing of fruits is disclosed. The system may include a movable picking unit, comprising: a first movable platform; one or more robotic arms connected to the movable platform; and a fruit conveyor. Each robotic arm may be configured to pick at least one fruit at a time and place the at least one picked fruit on the fruit conveyor. The system may further include: a movable boxing unit, comprising: a second movable platform; a containers gripper; a containers' lift; and a container's conveyor. The container's conveyor may be configured to receive a container from the containers gripper and convey the container to a fruit receiving position, at which the container receives fruits from the fruits' conveyor.

Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatus, including computer program products, are disclosed for regulating access of consumers (e.g., applications, containers, or VMs) to resources and services (e.g., storage). In one embodiment, this regulation occurs through the movement of consumers between different providers of a resource or service, such as a cloud service provider. Moving consumers includes, for example, determining the cost of moving the consumer from a first provider to a second provider. According to various embodiments, the cost of moving the consumer is compared to performance criteria associated with moving the consumer from the first provider to the second provider.

Abstract: Systems, apparatus and methods are disclosed which are directed to computer program products for managing multiple instances of an application or other entities, including managing instances of an application or other entities across multiple environments, in each case while assuring application performance to the extent possible given the resources available. The disclosed management software and/or processes may also be used to ensure that an application is running in multiple geo localities (e.g., discrete and/or physically separated geographical locations).

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for managing resources in virtualization systems, including multi-cloud systems. The use of supply chain economics alone and in combination with other techniques offers a unified platform to integrate, optimize or improve, and automate resource management in a virtualization system. These techniques may be used to monitor and control the delivery of service level agreements and software licenses. They may also be used to monitor and control contention of computing resources in a virtualization system, and to suspend or terminate computing resources.
